Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me novel Chapter 128

Today’s weather was fine, which was suitable for fishing under the sun.

Sebastian could not sleep the whole night after forcing Elliot to spill the beans about Myra’s identity. He tossed and turned on the bed, but he just could not fall asleep. He was making such a fuss that Lisa was complaining. In the end, she left him alone in bed and went to the study to sleep.

The next morning, Sebastian had dark circles around his eyes due to the lack of sleep.

In the morning, he lost his temper a few times in the Chase Residence. It started when he whined about the housekeeper’s cooking—he claimed that the breakfast she prepared was getting worse. “I expect a bowl of noodles, but there is no beef inside. The noodles are so dry that it’s unpalatable.” Next, he complained about the hot and stuffy garden, claiming that the air quality in Bradfort City was deteriorating. In the end, he pestered Lisa and complained about his foul mood while claiming that his grandchild would not even head home to visit him, etc.

Lisa threw in the towel and she told him to fish in an attempt to calm down.

Sebastian knew that she was sick of him, so he had no choice but to gather his fishing equipment in silence. Then, the chauffeur drove him to the club. Sebastian deliberately requested the chauffeur to take the longer route, so that they would pass by the Civil Affairs Bureau. He saw Myra walking out of the Civil Affairs Bureau with another man and she directly entered a black Maybach. I gave that car to Tony for his 34th birthday!

He felt that he had been kept out of the loop, so he was rather upset when he told the chauffeur to leave the place.

“The girl must have something brewing. She seduced my grandson, which is why he is so obsessed with a divorced woman like her!” Sebastian was blinded by fury at that point.

Upon arriving at the club, he went straight to the lakeside. Then, he bent down to prepare for his fishing, as if he was ready to be serious about it today.

Not too far away, Sasha was accompanying Old Master Hay to the club and she caught sight of Sebastian once he arrived. Her eyes shone brightly when she saw him.

She was aware that Sebastian was fond of her. This is such a great opportunity! How could I possibly let it slip past me?

After weighing her options, she whispered her plans to Old Master Hay. After that, he narrowed his eyes while nodding in agreement and he straightened his back. He made his way to Sebastian while wearing a warm and kind expression.

At that moment, Sebastian had completed his warm-up exercises. He had just placed the bait on the hook and was about to toss the line into the water.

However, his skills were slightly rusty, most probably because he had not been fishing for a long time. Furthermore, his waist felt stiff, so the hook seemed stuck to him despite his attempt to cast the line for 2 to 3 times. The line just could not be cast; his mood worsened since he had a short temper.

“Let me help you, Old Master Hart.” A gentle and sweet voice interrupted him.

Sasha quickened her pace in the last few steps and she tried to take the fishing rod away from Sebastian. Nevertheless, the fishing rod suddenly shifted and she missed it.

He wore a blank expression when he asked her, “Who are you?”

His tone was harsh because he was upset about Myra.

Sasha’s hands were held up mid-air and she awkwardly pulled back while tucking strands of stray hair behind her ear. She appeared especially fresh-faced and polite. “Old Master Hart, I am Sasha Hay.”
